The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 121 Taking a break from the storm and going shopping (1)
Chu Qing sent Aunt Xia, Chu Hong, Wanyun and others away. He sat in front of the bed and coaxed his daughter: "Manman, don't cry anymore. Do you think you are well now? Don't cry, what is going on, you Tell daddy well, did you really see Sixi make a move?"

Chu Man continued to twitch for a while before she stopped crying, and looked at her father pitifully, "Yes, someone pushed me suddenly, and when I fell, I looked back, and Sixi's hand hadn't been retracted, Daddy, you have to make the decision for me , I, I have never offended her, she..."

Chu Man suddenly stopped, with an expression of disbelief.

She hasn't provoked Sixi, but she has provoked Chu Han. Does Chu Han hold a grudge?Was it because Chu Han felt unhappy that her father started to treat her well again after she behaved recently, so he instigated Sixi to push her into the water, so that if she drowned, Chu Han would monopolize his father's favor?
"Daddy," Chu Man became more and more afraid as she thought about it, and grabbed Chu Qing's hand with a pale face, "Daddy, sister..."

Chu Qing stared at his little daughter closely, not missing any expression changes on Chu Man's face, and he knew this daughter too well. The sister-in-law begged for Yuehuaxiang, and anyone with a discerning eye could see through her tricks at a glance.

So the daughter did see Sixi reaching out her hand, so she decided that it was Sixi who pushed her, and soon thought that the sister-in-law wanted to kill her.

But Chu Qing also believed in his eldest daughter.

He held his little daughter's shoulder firmly, and gently wiped her tears with the other hand, "Listen to me, Manman, Sixi's hand may be to save you, but it may not be that you want to take it back after pushing you. Think carefully, push you Where is the person in your direction?" At that time, Liuzhi Sixi stood on the left and right of her daughter, and if she wanted to avoid attracting attention, she could only exert force from both sides, and her daughter must have felt it.

Chu Man looked in shock at the man's eyes that were as deep as deep springs.

When the father said this, did he suspect that Liu Zhi pushed her?If there is no doubt, why ask?But Liu Zhi is her personal servant girl, she is loyal, her father doesn't doubt Sixi, who has the most reason to harm her, and even doesn't believe the testimony she saw with her own eyes, is he determined to protect his sister?
Chu Man felt cold in her heart, she lowered her head, resisted the urge to bite her lips, and cried, "The right side, she pushed me from the right side."

On her right is Sixi.

Chu Qing's gaze turned cold, "Look up at me, and say it again."

Hearing the coldness in the man's words, Chu Man panicked, but since she had already opened her mouth, she couldn't change it.She raised her head, trying to make herself look believable, knowing that her father couldn't bear to see her cry, she choked up while wiping her tears and said: "On the right, she pushed hard on my waist and lifted me up."

She thought she could deceive people, but she didn't know that her fluttering eyelashes had already revealed her guilty conscience.

Chu Qing stood up suddenly.

Chu Man raised her head blankly, and met the man's indifferent face, just when she was worried that she had been seen through, Chu Qing said calmly: "I asked you the last time, from which side did that man push you?" , if you lie again, I will assume that you jumped down by yourself, and together with Liu Zhi, you will frame your sister so that I will despise her."

Chu Man's face was as white as paper.

Seeing that she was silent, Chu Qing turned around to leave.

Chu Man suddenly jumped off the bed, knelt to stop him, and cried bitterly: "Daddy, don't go, I, I lied, it was too chaotic at the time, I don't remember which side pushed me, but I didn't jump by myself Go on, I didn't frame my sister with Liu Zhi, Daddy, you believe me, I really didn't, I didn't..."

"Understood, go back to bed and take good care of your illness. This is the last time. If you dare to play tricks on me in the future, I will never believe anything you say." Chu Qing left without looking at her daughter.

Aunt Xia and the others were outside, and could clearly hear the conversation between the father and daughter inside.Wan Yun was expressionless, Chu Hong looked out the window with complicated expressions, only Aunt Xia burst into tears, as soon as Chu Qing came out, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Master Hou, Manman was frightened and talked nonsense, please forgive me She is afraid of falling into the water, so don't worry about her? This matter must not be done by the big girl, and the concubine will take Manman to make amends to the big girl, please don't blame Manman..."

Chu Qing ignored him, and said to Chu Hong, "Go, follow me to interrogate people." It doesn't matter if there is a gap between the two sisters, but even if the eldest son and the second son cannot be as close as a mother, they can't harbor resentment.He brought the eldest son together for interrogation, so that the eldest son would truly believe that the sister-in-law did the harm, instead of him giving a result. The eldest son was hindered by his father's prestige, but he refused to accept it in his heart.

The father and son went to the main courtyard one after the other.

In addition to Sixi Liuzhi, there are six other maids, one is Hongyu, the second-class maid of Rongxi Hall, one is Xiangping, the eldest maid of the third wife, one is Xianyin, Chu Rong's personal maid, and the other three are Hanzhu. Arrange the little maids who serve tea and water on the painting boat.

Hong Yu knelt there, very calm, when Chu Qing asked her, she calmly replied: "The old lady's side is crowded, and there is no room behind. The slave girl saw that there was still space on the left, so she ran over there to look. Someone exclaimed, and the servant turned around, only seeing the fourth girl falling, but not how she fell."

Chu Qing moved his gaze to Xiangping.

Xiangping can be the maidservant of the third lady, so she is naturally calm when encountering things, "Back to Lord Hou, the slaves and Xianyin were originally serving behind the lady, but later the dragon boat race became more and more fierce, and the slaves were itchy. The sisters on the side all squeezed to the bow, and the servants couldn't help but move forward, but the two servants stood on the left side of the willow branch, and the willow branch can testify."

Willow bowed her head in default.

Chu Qing looked at them, then asked Hong Yu: "Where were you standing at that time?"

Hong Yu said: "The maidservant left late, there is only one place at the corner of the boat, and the maidservant is standing there, there is no one on the left, and the strings are on the right."

Xianyin nodded in agreement: "Yes, this servant is still talking to Sister Hongyu."

"What about you? You stood at the back, did you see anyone walking behind the fourth girl?" Chu Qing asked the last three little maids.

The three little servant girls were trembling, two stood behind Ah Xun, with Sixi testifying, and one stood behind Hong Yu Xianyin, all said that they were all focused on watching the dragon boat race and didn't know anything else.

"Then have the people next to you ever left?" Chu Qing stared at each of them and asked.

The girls looked around and shook their heads.

Liu Zhi became more and more sure that it was Sixi's push, pointing to Sixi and said: "Master Hou, it's the girl Sixi pushed, I saw it with my own eyes!"
